Basically, This is how the Jay-Z vs Nas debate goes when it comes to albums

[Rakim Allah]

so wat u saying is jay wins huh

So what U sayin is your school lacked proper education in subjects like...math

 

[Mike Otherz]

Illmatic>RD
IWW>Vol1
I Am>Vol2
Vol3>Nastradamus
The BP=Stillmatic
The BP2>SD
God's Son=The Black Album
HHID>Kingdome Come
Untitled=AG
Life Is Good>BP3
Distant Relatives>WTT


Nas win handily. and with Life Is Good, he is Usain Bolting jay. he starting to move ahead of jay by a significant margin.

 

[Gifted one]

Illmatic>RD
IWW>Vol.1
I am=vol. 2(both albums are mediocore)
Nastradamus<Vol.3(both albums are garbage though)
Stillmatic>Blueprint(Very close though)
Gods Son>Blueprint 2
Streets Disciple<Black Album(Its not even close)
HHID<Kingdom Come
Untitled=American Gangster
LIG>Blueprint 3(Its not even close)

So to me Nas catalogue is superior to Jays, but a lot of people may think Jay body of work is better which is a respectable opinion

not to mention I'm not adding their group work, just comparing their solo work, if their group work was to be added

Distant Relatives>WTT
QB album>Best of both worlds

 

[YoungPlaya]

jay wins

 

[Nemesis]

I really think there should be a Jay Z Nas sub forum because this shyt is getting ridiculous.... its reaching the point when these stans are gonna start comparing who has the bigger dikk between the two (no homo).....

 

[Seth Brundle]

Some dumb fukkin opinions in here

slow down there,
Jay was leagues ahead of nas for the last few years, now that Nas dropped a hot album were gonna forget about the shyt nas did for the last 6 years.

Jays priority right now is not music, that much is obvious.

[Brian O'Conner]

Let me put a spin on this:

Nas BAD albums(4):
I AM
Nastradamus
QB Finest
Street's Disciple

Jayz BAD albums (5):
In my lifetime
Vol3
Blueprint 2
Kingdom Come
Blueprint 3

 

[Mr Miyagi]

Jay - 6
Nas - 5

Throw in Lost Tapes.

 

[Hova]

I AM
Nastradamus
QB Finest
Street's Disciple

Jayz BAD albums (5):
In my lifetime
Vol3
Blueprint 2
Kingdom Come
Blueprint 3

Vol 1 near classic
Kingdom come over hated
Blueprint 3 good mainstream album

Try again

 

[Mr Miyagi]

All these arguments and people ain't even including Nas second best release, Lost Tapes.


Even if we for argument sakes say Nas and Jays released catalog is equal, Nas unreleased catalog completely blows Jay and any other rapper not named Tupac out the water.

 

[Mr Miyagi]

And you can't include WTT and Distant Relatives in the argument and not include Best Of Both Worlds 1 and 2?

 

[Seth Brundle]

Lost Tapes is overrated.

 

[Olu Dara]

not this shyt again
